init: move usermodehelper_enable() to populate_rootfs()

2021-09-26T12:10:19Z

[ Upstream commit b234ed6d629420827e2839c8c8935be85a0867fd ] Currently, usermodehelper is enabled right before PID1 starts going through the initcalls. However, any call of a usermodehelper from a pure_, core_, postcore_, arch_, subsys_ or fs_ initcall is futile, as there is no filesystem contents yet. Up until commit e7cb072eb988 ("init/initramfs.c: do unpacking asynchronously"), such calls, whether via some request_module(), a legacy uevent "/sbin/hotplug" notification or something else, would just fail silently with (presumably) -ENOENT from kernel_execve(). However, that commit introduced the wait_for_initramfs() synchronization hook which must be called from the usermodehelper exec path right before the kernel_execve, in order that request_module() et al done from *after* rootfs_initcall() time (i.e. device_ and late_ initcalls) would continue to find a populated initramfs as they used to. Any call of wait_for_initramfs() done before the unpacking has been scheduled (i.e. before rootfs_initcall time) must just return immediately [and let the caller find an empty file system] in order not to deadlock the machine. I mistakenly thought, and my limited testing confirmed, that there were no such calls, so I added a pr_warn_once() in wait_for_initramfs(). It turns out that one can indeed hit request_module() as well as kobject_uevent_env() during those early init calls, leading to a user-visible warning in the kernel log emitted consistently for certain configurations. We could just remove the pr_warn_once(), but I think it's better to postpone enabling the usermodehelper framework until there is at least some chance of finding the executable. That is also a little more efficient in that a lot of work done in umh.c will be elided. However, it does change the error seen by those early callers from -ENOENT to -EBUSY, so there is a risk of a regression if any caller care about the exact error value.

init: Suppress wrong warning for bootconfig cmdline parameter

2021-08-12T17:35:57Z

Since the 'bootconfig' command line parameter is handled before parsing the command line, it doesn't use early_param(). But in this case, kernel shows a wrong warning message about it. [ 0.013714] Kernel command line: ro console=ttyS0 bootconfig console=tty0 [ 0.013741] Unknown command line parameters: bootconfig To suppress this message, add a dummy handler for 'bootconfig'.

Revert "mm/slub: use stackdepot to save stack trace in objects"

2021-07-17T20:27:00Z

This reverts commit 788691464c29455346dc613a3b43c2fb9e5757a4. It's not clear why, but it causes unexplained problems in entirely unrelated xfs code. The most likely explanation is some slab corruption, possibly triggered due to CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG_ON. See [1]. It ends up having a few other problems too, like build errors on arch/arc, and Geert reporting it using much more memory on m68k [3] (it probably does so elsewhere too, but it is probably just more noticeable on m68k). The architecture issues (both build and memory use) are likely just because this change effectively force-enabled STACKDEPOT (along with a very bad default value for the stackdepot hash size). But together with the xfs issue, this all smells like "this commit was not ready" to me.

buildid: stash away kernels build ID on init

2021-07-08T18:48:22Z

Parse the kernel's build ID at initialization so that other code can print a hex format string representation of the running kernel's build ID. This will be used in the kdump and dump_stack code so that developers can easily locate the vmlinux debug symbols for a crash/stacktrace.

mm/slub: use stackdepot to save stack trace in objects

2021-07-08T18:48:20Z

Many stack traces are similar so there are many similar arrays. Stackdepot saves each unique stack only once. Replace field addrs in struct track with depot_stack_handle_t handle. Use stackdepot to save stack trace. The benefits are smaller memory overhead and possibility to aggregate per-cache statistics in the future using the stackdepot handle instead of matching stacks manually.

2021-07-03T18:13:22Z

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Added option for per CPU threads to the hwlat tracer - Have hwlat tracer handle hotplug CPUs - New tracer: osnoise, that detects latency caused by interrupts, softirqs and scheduling of other tasks. - Added timerlat tracer that creates a thread and measures in detail what sources of latency it has for wake ups. - Removed the "success" field of the sched_wakeup trace event. This has been hardcoded as "1" since 2015, no tooling should be looking at it now. If one exists, we can revert this commit, fix that tool and try to remove it again in the future. - tgid mapping fixed to handle more than PID_MAX_DEFAULT pids/tgids. - New boot command line option "tp_printk_stop", as tp_printk causes trace events to write to console. When user space starts, this can easily live lock the system. Having a boot option to stop just after boot up is useful to prevent that from happening. - Have ftrace_dump_on_oops boot command line option take numbers that match the numbers shown in /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_dump_on_oops. - Bootconfig clean ups, fixes and enhancements. - New ktest script that tests bootconfig options. - Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() to register a tracepoint without triggering a WARN*() if it already exists. BPF has a path from user space that can do this. All other paths are considered a bug. - Small clean ups and fixes * tag 'trace-v5.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: (49 commits) tracing: Resize tgid_map to pid_max, not PID_MAX_DEFAULT tracing: Simplify & fix saved_tgids logic treewide: Add missing semicolons to __assign_str uses tracing: Change variable type as bool for clean-up trace/timerlat: Fix indentation on timerlat_main() trace/osnoise: Make 'noise' variable s64 in run_osnoise() tracepoint: Add tracepoint_probe_register_may_exist() for BPF tracing tracing: Fix spelling in osnoise tracer "interferences" -> "interference" Documentation: Fix a typo on trace/osnoise-tracer trace/osnoise: Fix return value on osnoise_init_hotplug_support trace/osnoise: Make interval u64 on osnoise_main trace/osnoise: Fix 'no previous prototype' warnings tracing: Have osnoise_main() add a quiescent state for task rcu seq_buf: Make trace_seq_putmem_hex() support data longer than 8 seq_buf: Fix overflow in seq_buf_putmem_hex() trace/osnoise: Support hotplug operations trace/hwlat: Support hotplug operations trace/hwlat: Protect kdata->kthread with get/put_online_cpus trace: Add timerlat tracer trace: Add osnoise tracer ...
